I tried to puree the tunafish but it did not work. Did any one else have success with this? Please advise.

Shelli, I have done chicken (canned) with the magic bullet blender. Best thing I found to grind stuff up. I added a small amount of mild salsa to the chicken and kept turning it on till it was smooth. I still have 2 days till I can eat pureed, but wanted to practice.

Chicken or tuna in Water should blend the same, but larger blenders wont do it too well. Hope this helps...Dave:bounce::bounce:

Shelli, I drain off almost of the Water, but save a little to keep it moist. If I am mixing anything else with the meat (salsa), I drain off all of the water. I wasted a little when practicing on how long to mix, but am getting better. I will be a pro when I can eat this in 2 days...Dave

if its a food that is canned or packed in liquid you can probably drain alot of it off. But I would save it just in case you do need to add it. A couple tablespoons of liquids can really help if its a dry food. I went through this with my kids as I resisted buying canned baby foods as much as possible. I found that If i kept on hand a can of broth in a plastic container in the fridge Adding a bit to dry meats did the trick. Or a spoonfull of lemon, lime, fat free miracle whip or mayo, even ranch dressing or cheese Soup depending on the food.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
